Due to a miscommuni­cation with the MiamiDade County Public Schools District, an article on on page 1A on Wednesday incorrectl­y reported that 76% of lost schools enrollment this academic year were students who transferre­d to private schools. The percentage also includes those students who left the county or state.

There’s a new scheduling process for seconddose appointmen­ts at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens and Marlins Park in Miami.

Seniors 65 and older and eligible healthcare workers can schedule their seconddose appointmen­t the same day they receive their first dose, according to the Florida Division of Emergency Management, which is tasked with the state’s vaccine distributi­on.

The on-site scheduling system has been in the works since the state-run sites opened and will help streamline the appointmen­t process, the division said.

Previously, anyone who had received their first dose at Hard Rock and had not received a call about their second dose could return for the next dose if it had been at least 21 days since their first shot.

At Marlins Park, the previous policy was that you would need to wait for someone from the state to contact you about scheduling your second dose.

Anyone who has a second-dose appointmen­t at Hard Rock and Marlins Park will still be required to show proof of Florida residency with a stateissue­d photo ID, such as a driver’s license, and a vaccinatio­n card.
